The production company responsible for producing the TV show Sports Car Revolution (as seen on Speed Channel) asked if I would like to participate in filming a segment for their new program.

So on a cold, rainy, November day I drove my car to Sean Hyland Motorsports where the shoot was to take place.
The crew spent hours lighting and filming my car from all angles.

Our fifteen minutes of television glory included some dyno pulls, a question and answer session regarding the mods done to my car and the hostess playfully disputing my horsepower numbers.
Even if our segment ends up on the cutting room floor, it was a most interesting and fun day.

I have just completed an upgrade to my supercharger set-up. First was the installation of one of Gary Shuhart's Track Dog Racing heat shields.

Then came a new light weight 62.5mm nose pulley from BR Performance as well as their complete Idler Pulley Upgrade. (What you don't see is the new Walbro 255LPH fuel pump)

Here is a photo of my engine bay after these latest mods, timing re-set to 12* BTDC.

Great job putting this together...a lot of attention to detail (really like the RS light cover intake). I had been planning to install TSIs but the RS will do better job with BEGI Cool Air intake I have ordered.

how do you like your KVR's after your extended use? What pads do they use, are the pads reasonably priced? Thanks and good looking miata.
